Dana doesn't get to withhold a win purse arbitrarily. If Silva's got no win bonus, that means that in his contrct, all his fight money is gauranteed up front. He was going to get that $200k period. It's not a case of whether or not Dana was happy, but rather how his contract was negotiated months (years?) ago.

And clearly Dana must have been at least a little happy with him, because Anderson got a $75k KOotN bonus.

Some of them like Silva made nice money. Others need to renegotiate thier contract. Of course that might be easier for the winner's! On a side note Franklin really needs to string togather a couple of wins so he can get payed better. It seems a shame for a former Champ to only make 75 when other big names are makeing at least 100!

He's one of the guy that might get a percentage of PPV buys. Not sure, but I'll bet he walks out with a lot more than we think. which he should.
